FedEx is effing with me...

Ol_Johnny_Skippelwicky box was supposed to be there yesterday, but they sent it to Green Bay (from Chicago) first, before heading to the Twin Cities area - 3:40am arrived at Rogers, MN - still not "on vehicle for delivery."

jtmartino box was supposed to be there today - 4:30am arrived South San Francisco, CA - I've definitely seen FedEx update the delivery to the following day (which they did) then flip it back to the original day when it's "on vehicle for delivery" (which hasn't happened).

I'm holding out hope that this is one of those times when reality doesn't match the updates and both will all of a sudden just show up as "delivered," but it's starting to annoy me.

Thoughts and prayers for The Ryan box scheduled for tomorrow (hopefully not pushed to Saturday at this point).

But...what box?
 
I know I'm an idiot but how in the hell am I supposed to pour CzigMeister tiramisu from the can. It says "Shake, pour vigorously" but when I shake the can it just gets everywhere. Am I supposed to wait a bit before opening it?
 
try shaking it before you open it
Did I imply I open it before shaking? That would be harder, yes, but it's not what I'm doing. Seriously, though, shaking it before opening just makes a mess. I must be missing something.

i was kidding. seriously though, just flip it vertically a few times before opening rather than shaking it. should have the same effect without riling up the co2.
 
Any beer that requires shaking before opening can **** right off. The brewer who intended for this can also get ******.
It's been awhile since you had a hot take you will obviously get creamed for. Coincidentally, I have nothing to do at work today. Consider me tuned in.

Yeah I figured, was a funny response anyway.

I'll give this a try next time instead of shaking or just skip the shaking and pour harder instead.

If necessary, consult the pictograph on Bud Lite Chelada, available at your finer minimart establishments.

How Two Roads contract brews good ipas and makea bad ipas under there own label never ceases to amaze me.
 
I would love to know how much debt some of these people have racked up buying beer. If people pay $650 for a beer has to mean you make other terrible financial decisions.

You can usually tell by focusing beyond the beer in the pictures they post... composite kitchen counters? Iffy. Patio furniture indoors? Ding-Ding-Ding!
 
Good to know I'm not the only one thinking these things when looking at pictures.

I'm a horrible person.



It's one of my guilty pleasures for drain pour videos. "oh look at you drain pouring that $400 or whatever badl like a boss for likes underneath that $9 rusty and calcified moen on peeled up laminate counter tops with composite cabinets that are water warped and older than my mother."


call me elitist, judgey, i dont care. if you're spending big cash on beer before your own living arrangements, financial future, kids education, etc etc etc.... you're a fool.

Good thing you've only seen DDB's backsplash and toaster.
